Environmental, Health and Safety - Permit Requests

Student Organizations hosting events with food will need to submit a Temporary Food & Special
Events Permit Request Form for Student Organizations with the Student Life Office at least 14
calendar days prior to the event. The Temporary Food & Special Events Permit is valid for only the
dates listed.

In addition to the Temporary Food & Special Events Permit Request, Student Organizations that plan
to use any open flame including: barbecue pits, reheating, hot holding devices (including sterno
fuels), or candles will need to request an Open Flame Permit from the Fire Marshall's Office.
Student Organizations that plan on using outside caterers or contractors shall only use
establishments in possession of a valid Health Permit from an adjoining City, County, or the State of
Texas and a Certified Food Service Manager's Certification. When purchasing food from a
caterer/contractor using University funds, some restaurants may be required to complete a
Certificate of Insurance.
